Mobile zoo visit proves a hit

Wednesday 2nd August, 2017

Fernhill
House was invaded by snakes, chinchillas and giant rabbits this week – but
there was no need to call out the environmental health inspectors.

The visitors
came along as part of an event staged by Worcestershire mobile zoo Animal
Mania.
The
specialist travelling party zoo spent an afternoon with residents, staff and
members of the public who were able to stroke a range of furry, scaly and
creepy creatures.

The
menagerie, which also includes bearded dragons, pythons, pygmy hedgehogs,
tortoises and arachnids, is a popular attraction for care homes, schools and
parties in the area – and certainly proved a hit across all ages of animal
lovers at Fernhill House.

It
was one of an eclectic range of regular activities put on at the home – such as
dancing, music recitals, comedy evenings, gym sessions, cookery masterclasses
and celebrity talks – many of which are open to the public.
